Celine Dion fan Gareth Davies from Strood has sound equipment seized by Medway Council for second time

Despite saying he wouldn't do it again, a Celine Dion fan has had his sound equipment seized for a second time - after continuing to blare out tunes.

Gareth Davies, of Hone Street, Strood, first had his belongings confiscated in April after he breached a noise abatement order six times for playing music including My Heart Will Go On.

Medway Council returned the items to him after a statutory 28 days, but officers witnessed him playing loud music again. His songs of choice included The Smiths, The Boy With The Thorn In His Side and Ice Cold by Vanilla Ice.

This time equipment including speakers, an iPod docking station and a 50-inch TV he had bought after the council removed items the first time were taken.

Speaking after the first incident, 47-year-old Mr Davies said: "I should be able to have a machine to see my decibel level so I know where I stand.

"All I'm doing is trying to save my liver because I'm trying to stop drinking. I used to sing one or two songs for 10-15 minutes and that was it."

He believes there should be a rating system to give people an idea what is an acceptable level of noise.
